I'm stumped and I want to try making something new. Anybody got some ideas out there?

These are what I have around the house:
Chicken breasts
Green Peppers
Onions
Jalapeno Pepper
Green Beans
Tofu extra firm
Eggs
Cucumbers
Iceberg Lettuce
Tortilla
Green Onions
Brocolli
Bacon
Milk

No cheese ideas please, DH doesn't like them (Is he nuts or what???? :sad2:
 
Sorry I am no help..we are going out! And I have never made a dish with those ingredients...

Unless you make fajitas without the cheese
 

Grilled chicken breast topped with sauteed green peppers and onions (throw in the jalapeno of you want some heat!), steamed greenbeans, and an asian cucumber salad (seed and dice the cucumber, chop some of the green onions, then toss with 2tsp of soy sauce and 1 tsp of sesame oil.

Enjoy!
 
Some good ingredients for a stir-fry in that list.
 
Grocery shopping tonight so I'll just pick something up there.

make a fajita salad with the tortillas baked for something crunchy on the side. I'm having the same problem myself deciding whats for dinner.

Oh, I like that idea! Except for the cucumber salad, DH will eat that stuff. :)
 
We are having pizza. It's my night to cook.
 
Can't have pizza, kild. I'm putting DH on phase 1 SB diet.

He has my condolences.
 
ok no prob,, makings of a gourmet meal here easy:)
sautee onion and a few peppers, both green and hot, once carmelized use same skillet to fry off a few slices of bacon, save as many bacon slices as you have chicken breasts uncooked.

butterfly the breasts and stuff with the pepper/onion, season the pocket with what ever you have handy, a lil garlic salt, some season all, wrap with bacon slices and close with a skewer or toothpick, put these in a 350 degree oven to bake ..

take cooked bacon, chop up and add that and the bacon drippings to the green beans and heat with a few slices of pepper for garnish in pan.
steam the broccolli with a cpl jalapenos and a few green onions , boil and slice hte eggs, serve as a garnish on plate next to the broccoli, and beans, serve the chicken breast on either a bed of iceberg or plain, with tortilla on the side:)


hows tht ?

is one heck of a spur o the moment chef:)

lt us know how it turns out
